This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The company operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on bakery and plant-based food solutions, targeting both consumers and business clients. Their business model includes product innovation, private label customization, and sustainability initiatives, which are prominently featured on the website. The presence of multiple country and language versions indicates a broad European market reach. The use of advanced marketing tools and analytics suggests a data-driven approach to customer engagement and market expansion. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers in the HTML suggests a preference for controlled communication channels via contact forms, enhancing data privacy and security. The company’s digital ecosystem includes related domains such as a dedicated careers site, reinforcing their brand and recruitment efforts.

Security posture

Vandemoortele’s website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and uses security best practices such as Content Security Policy nonces and cookie consent management. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the site lacks publicly available security policies, incident response procedures, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are important for transparency and trust in cybersecurity. The integration of third-party marketing and analytics scripts necessitates ongoing security audits to mitigate risks. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security governance documents and establishing a vulnerability disclosure program.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Include Data Protection Officer contact details to strengthen GDPR compliance visibility.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance HTTP security headers with additional directives such as X-Frame-Options and X-XSS-Protection.

The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance appears moderate, with room for optimization. The presence of comprehensive meta tags and structured data supports good SEO practices. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, indicating compliance with privacy regulations.

Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
